Built a new machine with MSI z87-G45 motherboard LGA 1150 with a i7-4770K Processor and a Corsair H80i liquid cooling. The day after it is up and running hose comes off the radiator spraying water every where. After carefully dry off and letting air dry for a couple of hours all it would do is supply power to video card and fans, no BIOS. I figure the motherboard is shot and CPU which also go wet were damaged. Corsair is willing to cover replacement cost. I have the replacement motherboard and CPU. But now the same is still happening. It is possible one of the replacements is faulty, but now I am wondering about other components. No water got onto the RAM, power supply, or video card. Help!

the best solution would be to try out another power supply if you have one available. it could of shorted it out when fluid came in contact with the board considering the powersupply is directly using the board as one big circuit. i would also try testing your ram as well you never know with something like that i would have had the whole system replaced personally.

if you did a custom liquid cooling set up your self IE buying your own hoses and fittings and water blocks stuff like that then your on your own.. how ever most of the closed loop venders will replace your hardware if the closed loop liquid cooler fails.
